training rounds

[joekirkbycobra]

do you think a amateur should train with 2 minute rounds and pro's 3 to get the intensity right or do you think that 3 or 4 the better as long as its intense?

i train all my boxers for 2, but they only get 30 rest. fight specific is, for me, important.

i think three minute rounds for amateurs. i mean if you can go hard in training for three minute rounds then two minute rounds arent a problem in fights and you wont gas out.

Well when i train with my friend we usually go 3 minute rounds because if you can last 3 minute rounds im sure you can last 2 minute rounds easy?

depends what intensity

depends what intensity

By 3rd round i can barely punch
So basically high intensity

[younghypnotiq]

3 minute rounds wit 1 minute rest is better IMO.

training idealyy needs to be fight specific, i understand the school of thought that if you can do three, two will be easy, but it does not work like that. you need tp learn when your heart hits a dead end of 190 bpm,,, and push yourself for the two mins...then in the minute get thr heart rate down to 130 again....

on the heavy bag we do 4x6 mins round then do pushups etc in the break then 6 mins on speed bag, 2x6 on double end bag but we sometimes we do more sometimes we do less, thats just the main stuff.
